Cité de l'Espace

Entry fee is a bit expensive so come in 2 hours before it closes and save 50%. My dad was a space engineer for the CNES so l was already very familiar with what is inside. Check it out!

This place was remarkable. A full sized mock-up of the Mir space station. A replica of the Soyuz capsule that you can crawl into. A hundred jillion exhibits describing more of space and space travel history than you could ever digest in one day.

The cafe near the IMAX theater serves traditional baguette and cheese/ salami/ ham sandwiches in a seating area outfitted with 50's style, spacey seating.

Hadn't yet seen the IMAX movie about the repair of the Hubble telescope in English. It's pretty impressive even when you don't understand what they're saying and you're reduced to just looking at the pictures

I was ready for a rocket themed pizza house. This could not possibly be further from that!! You could show up early and stay late and you'd never cover the whole place in a day.

Very nice and interesting. Planetarium was impressive and film about space stunning. Worth seeing even if pricy- 21 euro day pass.

They are charging full price for half the service!!! Due to coronavirus, they have closed a lot of the more interesting attractions, yet they are still charging 25 euros per person. It's also a museum for children. Don't bother going if you don't have children.
